How the King understood that the Pope for the hom●ge that King Iohn did to the See of Rome for the Realm of England and Ireland and for the tribute by him granted meant by process to cite the King to Rome to answer thereto wherein the King required their advice what was best for him to doe if any such thing were attempted The Bishops by themselves required respite of an answer untill the next day so did the Lords and Commons every one of them by themselves The same next day the whole Estate came together and by common consent enacted in effect following Viz. Forasmuch as neither King Iohn nor any other King could bring his Realm and Kingdom in such thraldom and subjection but by common assent of Parliament the which was not done And therefore that which he did was against his Oath at his Coronation besides many other causes If therefore the Pope should attempt any thing against the King by process or other matters in deed that the King with all his Subjects should with all their force and power resist the same At this present day the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge and Fryers of the four Orders Mendicants in the said Universities made long complaint one against the other to the King in Parliament and in the end submitted themselves to the Kings Order After which the Lords upon full digesting t●e whole mat●er by assent of Parliament took order That as well the Chancellor and Schollers as the the ●riars of those Orders in the said Universities should in all Graces and other School-Exercises use each other in friendly wise without any rumor as before And that none of those Orders should receive any Scholar into their said Orders being under the age of eighteen years That the Friars should take no advantage nor procure any Bull or any other Process from Rome against the said Universities or proceed therein That the King have power to redress all Controversies between them from henceforth and the offenders to be punished at the pleasure of the King and of his Council The Parliament continued until Monday the 11. of May The Chancellor then declared how the King had married the Lady Isabel his daughter to the Lord Cowcy who had fair living in England and elswhere and that it were for the honor of the King to create him an Earl which all the Lords thought good but for that the King was not determined of what name there was no more therein done At this time Sir Thomas Ludlow Chief Baron of the Exchequer shewed to the whole Estate how William the son and heir of William Stevens who held diversly of the King in chief as of the Crown had by Writ of Aetate probanda sued out Livery out of the Kings hands whereas the said William the son for long time should be within age as by a long Schedule may appear Whereupon the whole Estate upon sight of the said William the son adjudged him to be within age and therefore took order that all his hereditaments so sued out of the Kings hands should be eftsoons reseised into the Kings hands untill his full age and that all Obligations Charters Statutes Recognisances and all other Writings made by the said William the son should be void Note the Judgment is strange This done the King gave thanks to the whole Estates and licensed every one to depart and so the Parliament ended Anno Quadragesimo secundo Edwardi Tertii Rex primogenito suo Edwardo Principi Aquitaniae Walliae c. apud Westmonasterium primo die Maii.

were accused for surrendring the Castle of Drinckham in Flanders to the Kings enemies for money without the assent of the Kings Lieutenant There Spickworth proveth that the same was not in his keeping and thereby was discharged Crossingham answered that he yeilded the same upon necessity without money and submitteth himself to their order this was thought no good cause and therefore he was committed to prison The Chancellor in open Parliament charged the Bishop of Norwich with four chief points viz. First where he promised the King to serve him with a certain number for one whole year he had served but half a year and yet returned with his host spoyled The second he promised to muster and shew his Armie at Callice which also was not done and failed of his number The third for that in the last Parliament it was agreed that the King of Castile or some of the Kings Uncles should have gone as Generall for the honour of the Realm the same was not done and thereupon the voyage was lost for that upon the Bishops promise as good a Generall was promised The fourth for that the King appointed to have chosen some other temporall Lords or a sufficient Generall the which was not done because the Bishop took upon him the same whereby great villanies and other displeasures came The Bishop answered that albeit in this case he ought to have Counsell yet making his Protestation that he might all times avoid his answer he answered in person as followeth To the first his Commission was to go speedily to the rescue of Gaunt the which he did and this done as well the Grantoys as his own Captains thought it best to besiege the town of Ipre about which he losing many of his men by dint of Sword and Diseases he could not any longer do any good and therefore upon advice he removed To the second the speed which he made towards Gaunt caused him to make no muster at Callice To the third he had good Captains though not of the best and the Lord Nevill might have had by his own offer but that the King denyed him License the last Parliament To the fourth he refused no Lieutenant at the Kings hands onely the King writing to the Bishop beyond the Seas touching a Generall he therefore gave great thanks to the King for his great care of him and his and that otherwise he refused none as by his Letters may appear The Chancellor replyed taking advantage of the Bishops answer in the end and said that the Bishops answer seemed to the King and Lords no sufficient excuse for without his Imprisonment for what is contained in these four Articles he ought to make Fine and ransome at the Kings pleasure by seizing of the Temporalities of his Bishoprick when the King should please The Bishop after this was willed to declare such as were waged to serve him one year to the end they might serve the King in other places to accomplish their promise Thereto the Bishop answered that upon the delivery of Sir Robert Hulmer his Clarke and Treasurer he would do so Sir Robert was delivered and two severall dayes at the Bishops intreaty appointed for the case At the last the Bishop began to answer to the four Articles in manner aforesaid with somewhat adjoyned for his Purgation The Chancellor by replication disproveth the Bishop and concludeth although the King might pass on the Bishop as on a temporall Lord by reason that he took upon him to serve him as a Souldier and had the Sword carried before him contrary to his profession yet for that time the King would spare to lay hands on his person for his Imprisonment but for his other defaults and villanies the Lords by assent of the Parliament had adjudged him to make Fine and ransome at the Kings pleasure whereto he should be compelled by the seizure of his temporalities and it was commanded him from thenceforth no longer to have the sword carried before him Sir William Elinsham Sir Thomas Trevit Sir Henry de Ferrers and Sir William de Hurnedon Knights were openly accused in Parliament before the Lords for receiving divers severall summes for giving up of Holds and Fortresses without the assent of the King or his Generall together with one Robert Fitz-Raph the summes particularly layed to their charge amounted in the whole to 20000. Francks of Gold They all made certain fained excuses and submitted themselves to the Kings mercy The said Chancellor replyed and gave judgement● that they all should pay to the King of what they had received and remain in prison untill they had made Fine and ransome with the King and with them Sir William Harnedon was committed to prison his body and goods to be at the Kings pleasure Petitions of the Commons with their Answers THe print touching the Liberties of the Church the great Charter and the Charter of the Forrest Cap. 1. and 2. agreeth with the Record in effect but not in forme That the Justices of both Benches and Barons of the Exchecquer may be sworn before the King Lords and Commons to do without consideration They be already sworn and if need be shall be again It is enacted that Writs shall be sent to the Justices of Peace to charge them that Vagabonds and Saylors do put in suretie for their good behaviour or else to remain in Prison untill the coming of the Justices of Assize which far swerveth from the Print Cap. 5. quod nota The print touching the execution of the Statute of Winchester Cap. 6. agreeth with the Record in effect but not in forme The print touching the false making of Wollen Cloaths Cap. 9. far swerveth from the Record for that in the print is much more matter than in the Record quod nota The print touching Purveyors Cap. 8. agrees with the Record in effect but not in forme The print touching Writs of Premunire Cap. 14. far swerveth from the Record as having sometimes more and sometimes less than in the Record It is enacted that if Commission or Patent be granted to any Sheriff or Escheator for longer space than for one year that the same be void saving the Kings Prerogative It is enacted that all Denizens passing Wools shall be discharged of 20. d.

And whereas in a Battel at Durham divers of them were slain and some of their Chieftains as David de Brays William Douglas and others were by force there taken and are in the Kings power that he will be pleased so to take order with them by his Councel that he and his people be not in little danger and that they may give surety for their good behaviour The King by advice de ses Grantz will provide so as shall be best Whereas the Staple of Wooll which is holden at Bruges in Flanders hath used to be free so as all Merchants might there freely buy merchandise and carry the same from thence whither they lift by Land or Sea and now the same freedom is restrained so as none can freely buy and carry from thence according to the antient usage with them of Flanders and Brabant And they of Brabant cannot bring their Wools bought in the Staple out of the Town of Bruges without sureties that the Wools shall be uttered in the Country of Brabant or that they bring Letters from the Town of Bruges without sureties in what Town of Brabant those Wools shall be uttered whereby the price of Wooll is much abased Also the three good Towns of Flanders Gant Bruges Ipre will not suffer the small Towns which were wont to buy great quantities of Wools to make Cloth but do destroy their Instruments to the abasement likewise of the price of Wools.

Laws of the Realm also he will acquit himself by his Oath with one hundred Knights That he was not guilty of that for which he was banished and if his Oath be not due He will that the Archbishop Bishops and all the Priests of England do excommunicate him And yet if any man will say it against him he will defend himself by his body against all men except the Kings blood that it may please the King to end the same matters Forasmuch as Petition hath been made to the King that where villianage is alledged against the Demandant or Plaintiff the same should be tryed by the County where the partie alledging the exception doth lay the birth of the Defendant or Plaintiff to have been● which Petition is against the law and usage to the great mischief of the Commons as appeareth by the pleading at the Assizes and other pleadings which are to be pleaded and determined in the Counties where the demand is or trespasses done que duissent purtant estre trop delayes a disheritance de la dit come and that which worse is If the Petition should be granted every man would alledge this exception against his adversary and would chuse a County at his pleasure whereby any freeman might by such means be made servile For by such exception alledged by un grant de la terre against a mean person the same should be tryed in a forreign County where his greatne●s is and where the mean man nor his Ancestors never came therefore the King will have regard to these and other mischiefs if the Petition should proceed and to the good laws and customs of the land and them to maintain without regard to the Petition of any single person against the Law of the land Whereas Lionel the Kings son and Elizabeth his wife do hold the County of Hulnester in Ireland in right and heritage of the said Elizabeth and forasmuch as if the said Elizabeth should dye without Issue the said County is to descend unto divers Persons whereof some are enemies to the King which Parceners would enter into the said heritage and would move war against the King as well in Ireland as elsewhere that against this evill and danger the King in this Parliament will provide remedy by the advice of the Prelates Counts and Barons and others of his Councel Iohn Wettenham and Walter de Cheriton Merchants desire that whereas the Commons have complained against them by divers Bills in Parliament● Viz. that they have done divers extortions grievances and prejudices to the King and Commons Forasmuch as they have imployed their pains and diligence to serve the King and have therein suffered many mischiefs that the King will command the said Merchants to come before the Councel to answer whatsoever shall be objected and to declare their estate so as other Merchants hereafter may not doubt to deal with the King in Cheevances nor no other businesses as occasion shall require That none may chase or kill the Kings game when the same do scape out of the Forrests but only the Lords of the Woods and of the Soil where such game are found and that some certain punishments be ordered for them which shall do otherwise Whereas the Commons are charged to advise the King how the Peace of the land may be better kept To which was answered that in every County six persons of whom two to be des pluis grantz and two Knights and two men of Law and so more or lesse as need shall be and they to have power and Commission out of the Chancery to hear and determine the keeping of the Peace Et que counts traylebastoneries ne courgent as heretofore was assented by Parliament for they were the destruction of the people to small or no amendment of the Law or Peace nor punishment of Felons or Trespassers Wherefore because the Commons have so long continued together to their great costs and mischief they desire answer of this Bill lour deliverance Anno Vicesimo secundo Edwardi Tertii Rex c.

Abridgement be very exactly done by so learned and eminent an Antiquary whose Name it bears yet through the carelesness of the Clerks who transcribed it I find here and there some mistakes in the Number roll and some omissions of material Words Clauses yea of the whole Parliament Rolls of Ed. 2.46 E. 3. with some two or three Rolls more yet extant not abridged in any Copy I have seen which the publishing or perusal of the Parliament rolls at large will easily supply I being unwilling to adde any Appendix of mine own to this deceased Authors surviving industry Besides in one particular of moment I find both a mistranslation of the French and a mistaken Inference grounded on it by the Compiler of this Abridgement of which I thought necessary to give the Reader special Notice to rectifie his mistake which hath seduced many especially being since seconded therein by Sir Edw. Cook In the Abridgement of the Parliament Roll of 6 E. 3. n. 5 6. whereas it is translated The Bishops and Proctors of the Clergy went by themselves to consult therein And THE LORDS AND COMMONS BY THEMSELVES The LORDS AND COMMONS RETURN c. The word there translated Commons is in the Roll and French GRANTZ with a dash or GRANDEES in both places● and should be thus rendred in English The Lords Barons and other GREAT MEN not Commons by themselves And the said Earls Barons et autres Grantz AND OTHER GREAT MEN not Commons by the mouth of Sir Henry Beaumont c. The Knights of Shires and Commons being twice together distinguished from the Earls Barons and Great men in this very Number-Roll which I shall transcribe to clear this mistake and the inference grounded thereon● Et les ditz Countz Barons et auters Grantz per eux mesmes Les quex Countz Barons et auters Grantz puis revindrent et respondient touz au Roy par la bouch de Beaumond c. Les quels choses issint ordainiez per le ditz Countz Barons et auters Grantz luez devant nostre Seiur le Roy et les Prelates Chivalers des Countees et les Gentz de Comune here put in contradistinction to the Earls Lords and Great men and not present with them at their private debates but severed from them as well as the Bishops and Clergy and present only when they made their report to the King Prelates Knights Commons and whole Parliament assembled together upon this occasion in one place fueront plaisantz a eux touz et per nostre Seiur le Roy Prelates Countz Barons et auters Grantz et auxint per les Chivalers des Countees et GENTZ DES COMUNE here again distinguished from the Lords and Great men fueront pleinment assentuz accordez c. Now mark the inference thence made by the Abridger n. 10. By the 5. and 6. Titles before may appear THAT AT THIS TIME THE LORDS AND COMMONS WERE OF ONE HOUSE and that then there was no Speaker for the Commons That the Commons had then no Speaker I conceive is an undoubted truth since we find not any Speaker they had mentioned in the Rolls before the Parliaments of 51 E. 3. n. 89. and 1 R. 2. n. 16 17. But that the Lords and Commons were then of one House and sate and consulted together is a clear mistake directly contrary to this very record whereon it is grounded which expresly resolves That the Earls Barons and Great m●n went by themselves to consult as well as the Bishops and Clergy and that the Knights and Commons went not with them to consult but were called together to hear their report made by Sir Henry Beaumont to which they all gave their assents Sir Edward Cook in his 4. Institutes c. 1. p. 4● hath propagated this mistake and thus backed it with some additions of his own CERTAIN IT IS THAT AT THE FIRST BOTH HOUSES of Lords and Commons SATE TOGETHER as it appeareth by Modus tenendi Parliamentum vide Rot. Parliamenti 5 E. 3. n. 3. and in other places of the same Roll and in 6 E. 3. in divers places it appeareth THAT THE LORDS AND COMMONS SATE TOGETHER But under the favour of this Reverend Judge as this Modus tenendi Par●iamentum he so much magnifies and insists on is a meer Spurious Forgery and Imposture full of gross errors absurdities not antienter than King Rich the 2. reign some part of it being taken out of 11 R. 2 and no such antient Record in the Confessors Conquerors or Henry the 2. reigns nor of such venerable Authority or Antiquity as Sir Edw. by many confident averrments without any colour of truth affirms it to be in his 4 Institutes p. 12.349 and elswhere as Mr. Selden manifests in his Titles of Honour part 2. p. 613 685 691 738. to 745 and I have further evidenced in My Levellers Levelled and third Part of A Seasonable Legal and Historical Vindication c. of the good old Fundamental Liberties Rights Laws of England p. 314. and the very Treatise it self will evidence to any person who is but meanly versed in Antiquities or Parliamentary Records So the Roll of 5 E. 3. n. 3. proves no such thing That both Houses then sate together but the contrary that the Lords and Commons sate and consulted apart by themselves and that certain Lords as a special Committee only not Lords House then treated consulted with them but no otherwise And the Roll of 6 E. 3. proves expresly that the Commons sate not together as one House with the Lords but apart from them To put this out of all further controversie Parl. 2.6 E 3. n. 3. is express That the Bishops by themselves THE LORDS BY THEMSELVES AND THE COMMONS BY THEMSELVES consulted and advised the King touching the War with Scotland The like you may read in 13 E. 3. n. 4 to 10.13 E. 3. Parl. 2. n. 5 6 7 8.14 E. 3. n. 6.7.17 E. 3. n. 9 10 11.18 E. 3. n. 10 11.20 E. 3. n. 10 11.21 E. 3. n. 4 5.25 E. 3. n. 6 7.36 E. 3. n. 6 7.40 E. 3. n. 8.42 E. 3. n. 7 4● E. 3. n. 5 6.50 E. 3. n. 3 8 11 12. c. 51 E. 3. n. 18. and sundry other records throughout the reign of King Edward the 3d and in other Parliaments since Wherfore I wonder much at this gross confident mistake in Sir Edward Cook against so many express Records and that in his very Treatise touching Parliaments which is full of other mistakes To instance in other particulars for the Readers information Sir Edward Cooke in his 4 Institutes c. 1. p. 23. hath 5 or 6 gross mistakes together touching the Iudicature in Parliament which I have at large demonstrated refuted in my Plea for the Lords long since Particularly he there asserts Rot. Parl. 1 H. 4.79 is no Act of Parliament but an Ordinance when as you may see by this Abridgement of of it that it is neither an Act
Proctor to the Commonalty of England then assembled or represented by their Knights or Burgesses● in the Commons House of Parliament or distinguished from the Lords and Barons like that Deed of intayl by Sir Iohn Tiptoft their Speaker in 8 H. 4. as Sir Robert Cotton imports and others would thence inferr which I shall irrefragably evidence 1. By the beginning close and subscription of this very Letter printed in the Additamenta of Matthew Paris It begins thus Sanctissimo Patri in Christo Alexandro c. COMMUNITAS COMITUM PROCERUM MAGNATUM ALIORUMQUE REGNI ANGLIAE cum subjectione debita pedum oscula beatorum And it is thus joyntly subscribed and sealed by 6. Earls and 5. other Great men Et Nos R. de Clare Gloverniae Herefordiae● S. de Monteforti Legriae R. Bigod Mariscallus Angliae H. de Bohun Herefordiae Essexiae W. Albemarle J. de Placito Warwici Comites H. Bigod Justiciarius Angliae P. de Subaudia J. Filius Galfridi Jacobus de Audel Petrus de Monteforti VI●E TOTIUS COMMUNITATIS praesentibus Literis SIGILLA NOSTRA APPOSUIMUS IN TESTIMONIUM PRAEDI●TORUM The Whole COMMUNITY therefore in whose behalf or stead they signed and sealed this Letter was only the Communitas Comitum Procerum Magnatum aliorumque Regni Angliae or Whole Baronage of England mentioned in the beginning of it in whole names alone it was written not the meer Commons house or Commonalty of England either in or out of Parliament as contradistinct from the Lords And these 11. Earls Barons and Great men joyntly signed and sealed it Vice totius Communitatis as joynt Proctors to this whole Community of the Baronage of England not ten of them as Proxies to the Earls Nobles and Great men and Peter de Montfort the 11. as Speaker or Proctor to the Commons in or out of Parliament as is erroniously surmised 2ly It is most evident by the words of Mat. Paris who placeth this Letter in Anno 1458. or 41 H. 3. whereas Sir Robert Cotton and Rishanger referr it to Anno 1260. or 44 H. 3 Destinantur Nuncii solennes ad Dominum Papam ex parte Regni ET TOTIUS ANGLIAE UNIVERSITATE c. Causam autem Itineris eorum et SCRIPTUM A BARNAGIO TRANSCRIPTUM audire qui cupit in libro Additamentorum invenire praevalebit Which compared with his Istud detestabile factum Romano erat Pontifici PER BARONES significatum in this very Letter his Magnates Nobiles terrae c. And his Tale iniit Consilium UNIVERSITAS BARNAGII will undeniably manifest That the Barons and Universality of the Baronage only not the meer Commons of England writ and sent this Letter and were the tota Communitas mentioned and intended in it in whose behalf these 11 Earls and Grandees subscribed and sealed it not the UNIVERSITAS REGNI POPULARIS ETSI NON NOBILES whom Mat. Paris distinguisheth from them by this very expression in the same year and upon the same occasion who Pictavienses obsiderent et Castra eorum funditus dissiparent Wherefore neither the signing nor sealing of this Letter by them Vice totius Communitatis nor this Clause in it Etsi Dominus Rex et Magnates hoc vellent COMMUNITAS tamen ipsius ingressum in Angliam nullatenus sustinerent meant only of the Vulgar Rable or Uiversitas Regni popularis as Mat. Paris stiles them who were much inraged against him being the same in substance with that phrase in King Henry the first his Letter unto Pope Paschal not in but out of Parliament Et si ego quod absit in tanta me dejectione pon●rem Optimates vero et TOTUS ANGLIAE POPULUS ID NULLO MODO PATERETUR can be any convincing or probable evidence at all that this Bishop elect of Winchester was then judicially banished by the joint consent of the King Nobles and Commons in Parliament as is suggested he being forced to fly thence through fear of their arms alone not banished by their judicial sentence as they thus expresly inform the Pope in another Letter sent to him with the former to inhibit his return Maxime CUM IPSE A REGNO EXPULSUS NON EXTITERIT SED SPONTE CESSERIT non ausus exhibitionem Iustitiae quae singulis secundum Iuramenta Regis Procerum debebatur expectare Much lesse is it any proof that the Commons in that age had a Voice and consent in Parliament Iudgments of all Natures since they never had it in succeeding ages unlesse it were by way of Bill as the whole Commons House acknowledged in the Parliament of 1 H. 4. n. 79. and I have manifested at large in my Plea for the Lords no more than that they had then a Speaker or House of Commons which is clear by subsequent Parliaments in this Abridgement they had not till many years after 44 H. 3. and after the Parl. of 6 E. 3. 3ly This will most evidently appear by the Barons Letter sent to King Henry the third to Lewes Anno Dom. 1264. the 48 year of his reign from their Camp Barones alii fideles sui c. subscribed only by the Earl of Leicester and Gilbert de Clare ad Petitionem aliorum And by the Letter of Richard King of Romans Prince Edward the Kings eldest son caeterique Barones omnes Milites praedicto Regi Angliae constanter adhaerentes fide sincera opibus sent to the Barons in answer thereunto thus subscribed Rex Alemanniae Edwardus filius Regis nomine suo aliorum Regi adhaerentium Omnes nos contenti sumus praedictorum Dominorum sigillis In both which Letters the two Earls and the King of Romans and Prince Edward joyntly signed and sealed in the Name of all the Barons Knights and others of either party and not one of them as a Proctor or Speaker to the Commons and the other as Proxie to the Barons and Lords both Letters being writ from their Camp not Parliament and neither of them relating to the Commons House or Judicature in Parliament just like this Letter concerning Bishop Adomar Therefore no inference can be thence deduced to prove the Commons had either any House Speaker or Judicature in the Parliaments of 42 or 44 of Henry the third The first expresse writ I find of any Knights of Counties by name summoned to our Parliaments as Members is that of Claus. 49 H. 3. dors 10 11. requiring Sheriffs to summon 2. Knights out of every County to the Pa●liament which was presently after the battel of Evesham the same year the Earl of Leicester was slain the Barons totally routed by Pr.

Cantabr Custodi Quinque Portuum Anno Primo Richardi Secundi The Parliament holden at Westminster in the Quindeane of St. Michael in the first Year of King Richard the Second AT the Quindean of St. Michael being Tuesday the thirteenth of October certain Bishops and Lords assembled at the Palace of Westminster in the Blanch Chamber there where for that divers of the Bishops and Lords were not come the Arch-Bishop of Canterbury by the Kings commandment adjourned the Parliament until the next day without any further declaration willing them all to attend At the which next day as well the King as the two Arch-Bishops with most of the Lords and Commons assembled in the Painted Chamber where the Arch-Bishop of Canterbury pronounced the cause of the Parliament beginning with this Theam Rex tuus venit tibi The which his ●heam he divided into three parts saying that for three causes every friend ought to be welcomed to another viz. if he come to rejoyce and to be merry with his friend for any singular benefit or good hap fallen to his friend and therefore alledged Et exultavit in●ans in utero ejus Another if the said coming were to comfort his friend in adversity as it is contained in the Book of Iob. And the third for assaying his friend in time of necessity according to the Scripture in necessitate probabitur amicus He applieth that the King their undoubted leige Lord was now come unto them not for one but for all three causes For the first to rejoyce with them in the great providence and grace of God by sending his person among them not by any collateral means or election but by special discent of inheritance and for their good wil●s was he therefore come to give them thanks To visit and comfort them in their great necessity and adversities He was also come as not onely for the death of the noble King E. 3. and for the Prince his Son but also for the great losses of them on the Sea-coasts and elsewhere within the Realm done by their enemies whereunto he now was come not onely to proffer himself in aid but to confirm all their Liberties to maintain the Laws and Peace to redress the contrary To assay them He was also come as to councel with them for the depressing of the enemy and to require aid of them without which he could not perform the same for all which he willed
That remedy may be had against importable losses of the Commons and Realm sustained by the Wars That due consideration may be had of the great poverty within the Realm fallen by the Wars carrying forth of good money and base money now remaining and by the low prices of Wooll Tin and Lead That all Lords and Nobles upon these Ordinances made will help them to be severally executed on all Estates and that it would please the King to grant a Pardon general according to a Petition before made Whereupon certain of the chief Clerks of the Chancery certain Justices Barons of the Exchequer● and others learned in the Law were appointed to consult thereon and to present to the Lords their devises And also there were appointed certain Merchants to declare the causes of the low prices of our commodities carrying over of our money washing and clipping of the same All which made report accordingly to the Lords and Commons whereof remedy was provided in part viz. touching the Exchequer and Merchants and defaults of the Chancery if any there were After this the Commons required of the King three manner of Pardons to be confirmed by Parliament viz. The first touching Nobles and Gentlemen which in resisting of Traitors and rebellious Villains slew certain persons without due process of Law The second for such as were of those rebellious companies The third for such as lived in peace without any rising which was granted The Pardon for Nobles and Gentlemen The Pardons of the Rebels being out of the Towns of Canterbury Bury S. Edmonds Beverley Scarborough Bridgwater and Cambridge except such persons whose names appear hereafter being the principal and Ringleaders of the Rebels except Provers and Appealers of Treason and Felonies and except such as slew Simon Archbishop of Canterbury late Chancellor the Prior of S. Iohns then Treasurer and Iohn de Cavendish Chief Justice of the Kings Bench so as all men endamaged by such insurrection be not foreclosed of their due remedy The Pardon for such as lived in due obeisance as free from that insurrection The Commons after came into the Parliament where before the King they made a recapitulation of their former requests and require now to have the same framed and fashioned out and namely of the Ordinance against Purveyors Thereto was replied by the King That his charges were great as well for sundry particularities he uttered as like to be greater for the solemnity of the Kings marriage with the Lady Anne the daughter of the late mighty Prince Charls Emperor of Rome the which Lady was newly come into the Realm the tenth part of which charges the King had not in treasure or otherwise and that therefore it was as necessary to provide for the safety of the Kings estate as for the Common weal. The Commons answered That considering the Subjects evil wills they durst grant no Tax Then was required of them the continuance of the Subsidies of Woolls and other Staple-wares Whereto was answered that the Commons were not thereof advised The Commons then thought good to have the Parliament adjourned until after Christmas for that the same Feast approached and that in the mean time they might be further advised of every particular point Wherewith the King seemed to be content and the rather for that the Queen was arrived At this time the Earl of Arundel and Sir Michael de la Poole were chosen and sworne to be about the Kings person for Council in governing him The Commons then require the sight of the Pardon 's granted Thereto was answered that such was not the guise but that the Commons should make petition for such Pardon in writing and that the King the last day of the Parliament should answer the same And further it was said that the King used not to grant any thing to the Commons unless they also granted to him The Commons answered that of the grant of the Subsidies of Wooll and other Staple-wares they would be advised And it was answered for the King that he would so be of any Pardon The Commons being somwhat better advised came before and considering as well the Kings great charges as fearing lest by the continual grants of the Subsidy of Woolls the same would grow in custom and so be challenged by the King as of right for avoiding whereof the Lords and Commons granted to the King the like Subsidy of Woolls and Staple-wares as lastly was granted from the Feast of the Circumcision of our Lord then ensuing until Candlemas then following so as the space between Christmas and the Circumcision should be an interruption to the Kings claim aforesaid if it were attempted Whereupon were openly read the pardons granted whereof the Commons were greatly joyous and gave the King thanks A goodly President of a Commission granted by Parliament for stay of Riots Insurrections and Rebellions The Mainprisors of Sir Ralph Ferrens knight expressed in the last Parliament tit 24. bring forth and desire to be discharged of their Mainprize and Sir Ralph being received into the Kings protection and so set at large Richard Clynedon Esquire by his Bill exhibited to the King in Parliament accuseth Sir William Cogan knight for that the said Sir William with other his accomplices of the Town of Bridgewater should by menaces extort of the Prior of S. Iohn of Ierusalem the sum of two hundred pound for and in the name of a Fine and one hundred pound by Obligation the which he offereth to try by the Combate with the said Sir William The same Sir William being in Parliament requireth Councel for that he was unlearned the which was denied for the case touched Treason whereupon after advice with certain of his friends he in person making request that he might at any time correct and amend any his answers pleaded not culpable and to be tried by his County whereupon in the end of the Parliament both parties were adjourned before the Justices of the Common Law for what attained to the Law The Major Bailiffs and Commonalty of Cambridge were accused for that they in the late tumults and uproars confederates with other mis-doers brake up the Treasury of the University of Cambridge and there took and burned sundry of the Charters of the University and also compelled the Chancellor and Schollers of the said University under their common Seal to release to the said Major and Burgesses all manner of Liberties and also all actions reall and personal and further to be bound to them in great sums of money whereupon it was agreed in form following That one Writ should be directed to the Major Bailiffs and Commonalty that now were to appear in the Parliament and to answer the form whereof doth there appear And that another Writ in form aforesaid should be directed to the Major
